Sorry for not-up-to-date documentation. I think that looking at the various examples is most helpful for a start. I can't provide a link to code.haskell.org since it is down. But there is an Example directory. And maybe: http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Haskore _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
